"What the American people saw last night for that one-hour speech was the president of the United States stepping forward and laying out an agenda to rebuild our military, to restore our economy, to repeal and replace Obamacare, to have the kind of trade deals and the kind of tax reform that will really get this economy going again, to end illegal immigration. I think that's the reason why the speech is resonating all across the country."

Pence said the American people got the chance to see the president he works with every day -- exhibiting "broad-shouldered strength" and a "big heart."

"I think he left the Capitol with a sense that he had laid a foundation for really moving this country forward," he said.

Pence concluded saying he is excited to go to work on moving Trump's agenda forward.
